I LOVE N.Y. – Maple sugaring season set to begin in New York State.   With its unique climate, soil and forests, New York State is naturally perfect for producing maple syrup, and is the third largest producer of maple syrup in the United States.

The Native Americans of the United States and Canada seem to be the first creators of maple syrup, taking the liquid from maple trees and removing the excess fluids by boiling. It take approximately 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of syrup.
